Wouldn't it be inviting to have a beautiful entranceway into your home.It creates a warmth and friendliness and a memorable first impression.This cuban home is an example of how decorative tiles can enhance a space without detracting from the other features ,actually even adding to them.There are two designs of encaustic tiles illustrated here and despite being totally different,they work beautifully together.

Many examples of encaustic tiles can be found throughout the island of Cuba.This is a stunning example of how a mix of designs can work so beautifully together.

I am thrilled with this lovely reproduction tile that just arrived.It is a classic Moorish design and is seen alot in Turkey.I do stock this design in other colours,however I love the dramatic effect of the white circle on the black background.It would look stunning as a feature wall,a bathroom floor,a bench top,as a splashback or on the surrounds of your fireplace.In fact it would look stunning wherever it was placed,providing there is not to much else in terms of pattern going on.I have many other designs arriving over the next 4 weeks.I will post them as they arrive.
